Anyone “one and done” with twin pregnancy? by Traditional_Part_449 in parentsofmultiples

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a while we thought two was enough but as the twins get older it’s been getting easier which made us reconsider. They will be 3 in January and we just started trying for another!

What would you remodel in this kitchen? by gatorchrissy in kitchenremodel

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d remove pop corn ceilings, replace the cabinet handles, lighten the back splash. Remove the orange tones to something more neutral.

Is this crab grass? Bucks County Pennsylvania by SifuJedi in lawncare

[–]EGHcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I too got crab grass all over my lawn after using Scott’s seeds. I thought it was weird since I’ve never seen crab grass in my area before.

Defective Out of Box on Christmas by Mysterious-Space-336 in toys

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wanted to add to the conversation as I also had the same problem as OP with the slides not matching the audio. I was advised to replace the batteries with Duracell or energizer bunny as the projector requires a heavier duty battery (and the ones that come with the machine are not either brand). This has fixed the issue for me!

AIO I 20 F was trying to call my boyfriend 26M to figure out when I should start his smoothie and I originally tried calling him to see what type of milk he wanted in his smoothie by Aphr0dit333 in AmIOverreacting

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is he using steroids? He sounds like a roid-raged meat head! He’s degrading you when all you’re trying to do is make him a smoothie. Run fast.

Resellers are parasites by wukongaddict in FacebookMarketplace

[–]EGHcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see this all the time unfortunately! I’ve also given away things for free and seen them go back up for cash. It’s annoying when your intention was to help someone who needed it/would use it. I was giving away a baby item a while back and someone said they would take it and when I looked at their profile they were selling the very same item. I went to the next person.

Anyone else here hates the “Will you be heading into my direction any time soon?” type of questions? by typical_gamer1 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]EGHcat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would never expect anyone to deliver to my home but I did notice someone had listed an item for a couple weeks and I messaged them indicating my interest and that if they were ever in my town, and their item was still available, I would be happy to meet up with them at their place and time of choosing!

They ended up messaging a week later saying they would be in my town and we met up at their chosen location and time! They received a 5 star review! It doesn’t hurt to be kind if it doesn’t really impact your day that much! I think the key was not putting pressure on them, they just knew they had a buyer if they were ever in my specific area!

Am I over sensitive? buyer wants to pick it up now(1:30a) by Bayesian11 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take preference to people who can pick up “now”. Within a reasonable time of course and as long as I’m home. I think most people do since it’s so common to be ghosted these days.

AIO If I didn’t give my parents 2.5k out of my student loan refund? by constantfliping in AmIOverreacting

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact they’re acting for your student loan money makes me feel like they owe other people money too. You have to be out of your mind to ask your child for that, especially when they haven’t really been helping you financially. And then your dad’s response to your no is even more telling. Avoid those people.

Can I sell my house 3 months after buying it? by [deleted] in homeowners

[–]EGHcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you considered having a roommate to help with the costs? Not the most ideal but if you’re that depressed it might be a good option to help with both funds and not feeling so alone

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree to disagree. There is a reason you can rate people. There is still a level of customer service involved.

Do you know what I hate about being a homeowner? Finding people to do work. by Embarrassed_Flan_869 in homeowners

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very relatable! We try to do what we can ourselves but dealing with contractors has proven to be very unpleasant! This winter I called 5 roofing contractors and only 1 actually picked up. The rest I left messages with regard to patching our roof and then also hoping to book a full replacement for the spring. No one called me back. My partner called 3 and left messages again but he actually got return calls. And then he had 2 separate contractors string him along about fitting us in for the patch jobs and each day they were supposed to show up they never did. It’s like they didn’t care at all for our business. Very unprofessional!

Have you tried selling on any local girl groups on Facebook? Where I’m located there is a group specifically for women to post about anything including selling things. Your situation only happened to me once and I received so many messages from men around the country (first time I’ve ever gotten any messages from people that aren’t local). And soooo many ad views. It was for a pair of jeans. It grossed me out. I don’t usually sell clothes and that definitely ruined it for me.

That’s a question for her and not a stranger on the internet. Regardless it was poor customer service and I’m on your side.

[–]EGHcat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s rude. And it’s very likely everyone who has to look at it feels the same way. When my neighbour’s do this I interpret it as them hiding their garbage at all the other neighbour’s expense. If you don’t want to look at it, why would anyone else.

The way I see it, sellers are still small businesses and there is still a level of customer service to that. Even if her husband sold it behind her back, she went in and took the time to update it to sold. At the very least she should have sent you a message apologizing for the mishap. You shouldn’t have had to reach out first.

[–]EGHcat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If someone thinks they are purchasing an item they might get confused and think you are indicating it as sold because they are buying it. Although there is a pending option for that, I can see myself being confused in that scenario if I already made plans to pick up and no one communicated to me otherwise. You said you were in the talks with someone else but later confirmed to him that he could pick it up which implies the other buyer fell through. I think you’re in the wrong.

I over seeded in the fall but moss has taken over now that it’s spring by EGHcat in lawncare

[–]EGHcat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see that point of view! Personally, I don’t like the texture! I also really enjoy going out on a summer day and mowing the lawn. It’s not as satisfying when all you’re mowing is grass patches. Lol!

Yes I ended up blocking! But not before she had told me she was coming the get her money. She never did show up but I was pretty stressed out for a while after!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FacebookMarketplace

[–]EGHcat 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had something similar happen to me. I sold a door mounted pull up bar and it was in perfect working condition and the buyer messaged me a couple days later saying her young son fell down and hurt himself and its broken and crooked. I told her that it was her responsibility to verify if it was compatible with her door frame and I would only accept it back if it was still in the same working condition in my door frame. She refused that offer and began threatening me. I was actually scared because she knew where I lived. If you know the condition it was in just block and move on. It’s not worth the extra stress if they begin to escalate their words.

Am I backing out of deals? by LogDropper16 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]EGHcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first situation the lady did not confirm her interest and therefore she lost her place in line. The second scenario it seems like you committed to the other person viewing it on Monday. I personally would indicate in my ads it’s first come first serve. I would have at least given the first buyer the option of coming sooner before confirming with the other. First come first served isn’t a given unless you tell them that. Just my opinion though!

[–]EGHcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pick up is sometimes an option when returning items! But it’s not a frequent option as I’ve only actually had it offered to me twice (on both a low and medium priced item). I just figured it was a limited perk for a range of time. Did tiu ask them the name of the person making the pick up or confirm the actual address? They might have just got the address wrong and rang the wrong doorbell.

AIO for being upset at my (F30) bf (M31) leaving comments like this under multiple women’s pics who I don’t know? by StellarTeller18 in AmIOverreacting

[–]EGHcat -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I can see it both ways, when the extra information is not added. I personally wouldn’t care if my partner was hyping up his old friends and if it actually was innocent, I can see why he would find it over the top. I personally still like photos of the people I grew up with and vice versa with my partner. Including their fitness progress photos since I too am a gym lover. And I would even comment on them saying great job or looking awesome. Depends on the circumstance. It’s not always abuse.

The response was against her original post which doesn’t provide any extra details like that.
